Obstacles or barriers: If there are obstacles blocking certain paths, the number of available routes would be reduced.
One-way paths: If some paths can only be traversed in one direction, this would also limit the number of possible combinations.
Conditional movement: If certain paths require specific conditions or actions to be activated (e.g., solving a puzzle, collecting an item), this could further restrict the number of ways.
